-A frail cowered form in the shadows of the night,
an orphan of a fact that we denied was ever known.
Dissociative by means of the prescription the mind writes,
memories in a garden walled and gated, overgrown.
No birdsong comes out of the somber stillness;
silent as the vermin that crawl out of the pipes.
A miser darkly glowering over all that feel this,
lashes out with hatred's whip, leaving bloody stripes.
A sudden gust of chill in the unvented chamber
blows away the compost that is heaped beyond the gate.
The heart is now a firefly suspended dead in amber
The garden is in wither, and the storm will not abate.
Orphans of thoughts slink slowly down a dark street,
where introversion and indifference chanced to meet.I don't think you could and keep the sentiment alive.
roll on---write on
your MUSE is WIDE awake!
鈾モ櫏An unusual sonnet that avoids the claustrophobia of the pentameter. Overall I like this but 'A miser' stopped me and made me query the word. Now 'Orphans of thoughts' is brilliant as is much else in this work. I really feel the atmosphere so if you do decide to alter in any way the 'feeling' in this should be held. Each line has been crafted and that is why I feel the emotion in this. You are on a roll - inspiration is with you now!
Get rid of the Birdsong additive.last time you answered me saying birds were not singing,
My poem wound up on a nature site,under birds.The Bird is the Word,not to be misused.
Introversion seems overblown.Meanings are lost when many can not grasp the translation.
I have no idea what that word is.Otherwise it is a chilling,dark great poem.
This is what i watch for.An 8 1/2.

Not sure, it is an interesting write as is.
I can't fix it because I don't understand a line of it. It reads nicely.
